Question 1
Which cell type has a high rate of turnover with high regenerative capacity?
- hepatocyte
- nerves
- skeletal muscle
- cardiac muscle
Explanation: Cells with high rates of turnover include hepatocytes, bone marrow, epithelium, testes, breast, and fibroblasts. Tissue with low turnover, but can respond to stimuli include endothelial cells, glial cells, bone, cartilage, and smooth muscle. Cells with little or no capacity to divide are nerves, skeletal, and cardiac muscle
